Hi Stuart. thanks for adding this advice. The anonymous user is already
limited to /home/ftp as root. I am guessing the install does that by
default. "id ftp" returns:
testermike@eddie:~$ sudo id ftp
uid=111(ftp) gid=65534(nogroup) groups=65534(nogroup)
testermike@eddie:~$
however when i chowned the /home/ftp directory to nogroup the system
reported nogroup as invalid. Any how i wont bore you with the logs
because I am wondering why I am bothering with anonymous at all. The FTP
server will be hanging off a church network and I am thinking it only
makes sense to allow access to known users anyway.
would you all agree?
TIA
Mike
